My 14-year-old healthy Chihuahua, Happy Dog, suddenly started screeching for no apparent reason. He's been acting weird, shaking, and screeching even while laying down. I'm worried and considering taking him to the vet, but I'm also afraid they might suggest putting him to sleep due to his age. What could be causing this behavior, and what should I do?

My 4 1/2 month old pup, Shadow, has had persistent diarrhea for a week. She recently swallowed a dead baby bird, and despite trying various home remedies, the diarrhea hasn't stopped. She drinks a lot of water, has a good appetite, and plays normally, but her stool alternates between hardening and becoming runny again. What should I do to help her recover?

My dog, Scooter, has Flea Allergic Dermatitis and is currently on Nexgard prescribed by the Pet Vet at Tractor Supply. I would like him to be on Simparica instead, as he seems to do better on it. Can I ask the veterinarian to prescribe Simparica for him next time I see her?

My 7-month-old Golden Retriever, Bentley, is not wanting to eat this morning. He had bloody diarrhea with jelly-type blood yesterday and has had a digestive upset since moving to a new home. He ate some cat poop and ingested a small amount of pottery clay two weeks ago. What could be causing his symptoms and what should I do?
